It is suggested that theprocessbe started as soon as possible.Area of Interest 01 - Partitioning and Mechanism Studies for Mercury andOtherTrace Metals within Coal-Fired ProcessesUnderstanding mercury chemistry and process-related speciation mechanismsandtransformations in laboratory experiments provide necessary steps to firstunderstanding partitioning and subsequently developing mercury removalprocesses for advanced coal power systems, i.e., coal-fired industrial andutility PC-boiler applications, cyclone boilers, tangentially-firedboilers,fluidized-bed boilers and gasification processes. Past research has shown areasonable link between mercury speciation and several parameters includingthevarious constituents of fly ash (particularly unburned carbon/ LOI); flyashproperties (such as fly ash alkalinity); and process specific information(coalrank, boiler type, flue-gas temperature, Cl concentration, NOxconcentration,sulfur compounds, and CO/CO2 concentrations). Grant applications are soughttofurther understand partitioning and chemistry of mercury and other tracemetaland organic substances in coal-based (bituminous, subbituminous, andlignite)systems. Specifically, modeling or experiments using statistical analysisofthese identified parameters on chemical intermediaries and mechanisms aresought.To link to the master announcement DE-PS26-05NT42472-00, click on thefollowinglink:https://e-center.doe.gov/iips/faopor.nsf/UNID/AFDC3E3018D30D1C8525700C005DB010?OpenDocument
